Acorn best wishes.........

I have bought three new First Edition paper pads from The Range over the last couple of weeks and I made this card with one of them, New Leaf. It's full of lovely autumnal colours with leaves and flowers and some lovely toning fabric-look plains. I thought that this leaf paper would make a great masculine card. I used a square fold-back card base, with a shaped panel on the front. I also added a smaller script embossed panel to hold the acorn cluster and sentiment which were cut from textured cardstock. They were both adhered to the shaped panel with foam pads. The inside back of the card was covered with a fabric-look plain paper in a grey-green colour. Card Candi in the same colours as the leaves on the paper completes the card.
Carts used:
Acorn cluster-Art Nouveau
Shaped panels & Best Wishes- Lacy Labels
Is it me or does that 'b' in the Best Wishes look a bit wonky?!
Thanks for dropping by today!
